In 2007, the Nanjing Gulou District People's Court heard a civil dispute case that caused a sensation across the country, a 26-year-old young man, Peng Yu, was falsely accused of hitting someone by the other party because he helped an old lady who had fallen, and was awarded compensation by the court 450,000 yuan.
This case has aroused widespread attention and discussion in the society, and the most shocking thing is that the presiding judge at the time, Wang Hao, said to Peng Yu in court: You didn't hit it, why do you want to help?This sentence is considered a devastating blow to the conscience of society, and it has also caused many people to doubt and be disappointed in the fairness of justice. So, how is the judge who shouted this sentence 17 years later?
According to the information on the Internet, we can learn something. Wang Hao is a judge with more than ten years of work experience, who has participated in the trial of many major cases and has rich judicial practice. Second, in the first-instance judgment of the Peng Yu case, Wang Hao determined that Peng Yu bore 40% of the civil liability in accordance with the provisions of the law and common sense, and this judgment did not violate legal principles and was also supported by the Supreme People's Court.
Wang Hao also suffered a lot of pressure and distress during the trial of Peng Yu's case, he once said that his purpose was to let Peng Yu and the old lady be dealt with fairly, but his words were taken out of context, misunderstood and attacked by ** and netizens, and he was also subjected to a lot of unfair evaluation and influence.
After the Peng Yu case, Wang Hao was transferred out of the original court, and successively worked in the Rujiangmen sub-district office and the judicial office in Gulou District, his position and salary have declined, and his future has also been affected, he once said that he does not regret his verdict, but he also admitted that his life has changed because of this case.
This case has aroused strong condemnation and indignation from netizens, who have expressed dissatisfaction and doubts about Judge Wang Hao's words and verdict, and also expressed sympathy and support for Peng Yu's experience, and some people expressed contempt and accusation for the old lady's behavior.
At the same time, some netizens analyzed and discussed the reasons and background of the case, believing that this is the lack of social morality and legal system, reflecting the moral degradation and distortion of human nature of some people, and also exposing some social problems and institutional defects, such as the lack of social trust, the lack of judicial fairness, the risk of righteousness and courage, and the efficiency of emergency rescue.
Some netizens summarized and learned from the educational significance and enlightenment of the case, believing that this is a warning and lesson, reminding everyone to cherish life, avoid disputes, stay away from violence, and maintain peace, and also call on all sectors of society to strengthen the construction of the legal system and morality, improve the quality and sense of responsibility of citizens, and jointly create a safe and harmonious social environment.
This case, after the process of first instance, second instance and reconciliation, finally ended with Peng Yu compensating the old lady 10,000 yuan. But this does not mean that this case is over, because the truth of this case has not been clearly confirmed, the statements of both sides have been disputed, and this case has also brought a lot of impact and consequences to the parties and society.
According to the latest news, we can learn a few things. Peng Yu did not give up his ideals and life after the case ended, he continued to work in the original company, also got married and had children, and lived a plain and happy life, he once said that he didn't want to bring up this case again, and he didn't want to have any contact with the old lady anymore, he just wanted to forget this nightmare and start over.
Secondly, after the case ended, the old lady did not get the sympathy and understanding of netizens, but was accused and abused more, her family and son were also greatly affected, her son was removed, and her family was also doxxed by netizens, she once said that she did not mean to slander people, she was also a victim, she just wanted justice, but no one believed her words, she finally died in 2012, the cause of death is unknown.
In this case, Judge Wang Hao, who shouted "You didn't hit it, why should you help", has also become a controversial figure, and his words and verdict have aroused many people's doubts and criticisms, and also made great changes in his career and life.
Seventeen years later, how is he doing?Perhaps, he has faded out of the public eye, perhaps, he is still fighting for the cause of justice. In any case, we should respect his choice, we should also respect the judgment of the law, and more importantly, we should respect the conscience of the society, and we should not deny a person because of a sentence, we should all look at this case and this society with a rational and objective attitude.
